Delicate grey hue to a deep graphite black

The PITT Graphic range provides all creative artists with an extensive assortment of pencils and crayons in different grades of hardness for sketching, graphic design and shading work. The "green pencil from Faber", which was already being mentioned with approval by Van Gogh and Goethe, has now become part of everyday life. The 16 different grades of hardness range from a delicate grey hue to a deep graphite black, and offer artists a wide range of possibilities. The Graphite Pure leads are ideal for creating contrasts and shading extended areas. These pencils offer unparalleled possibilities for spontaneous expression, creating different effects based on the pressure applied and grade of hardness. The pencils are sharpened in the same way as a normal lead pencil. The graphite crayons are an ideal and very economical medium for working on very large sketches and areas.

Great Product, Great Service.I Really like the pencils; I use them everyday. Used in conjunction with my Staedtlers I finally get the desired shading. Keeping in mind that I am a rank amatuer, I think this is a big plus! I recommend these pencils to any artist or would be artist.

excellent quality - consistent textures from one box to the nextbeen using these and their Turquoise counterparts for more than 55 years - that has to tell you something. You can leave anything home but the wife, dog, pencil roll and drawing paper - nothing else matters except maybe a decent camera! Consistent quality from one year to the next, these are professional quality sketchers at an novice level price.

Love Fiber Castell ever since I was little.My first Fiber Castell watercolor pencil set (given to me by my Aunt, who inspired me to draw) was like gold. I loved them so much. She used to let me use her drawing pencils and I always loved it. I want to see what my abilities would be lent by these pencils as an adult.

The quality of a sharpener, especially the blade, is crucial for optimum sharpening of wood-clad pencils. Due to their robust and hard leads, graphite pencils can be sharpened to a very thin point. Given their softer leads, color pencils are sharpened to a shorter and blunter point.
